Google Blogosphere Search

My BigGuide Web directory has seen an increase in traffic over the past two days that has me scratching my head. So I went to Google and started searching for an article or something else that may be responsible for this unexpected surge in traffic.

In the course of searching the news and the Web for evidence of a new mention of BigGuide I noticed Google has a blog search tool that I wasn't aware of before. Now I have no idea how long it's been out there and I apologize if I'm on the tail end of the "edge", but I thought I'd share the news to the other folks that just might not be aware of the great tool.

They offer an email alert tool so you can get notified when someone blogs about your site. Not a bad idea to sign up for that because you probably want to be the first to know what people are saying about your site out there in the blogosphere.
